Immoboliser Faulty My mother has a 1997 hyundai accent which has run very nicely for over ten years only recently has it begun to give trouble due to its immoboliser I am a qualifed sound technician and have auto electrical experience but cant obtain wiring diagrams to bypass the circuit. Could you help

My 1998 accent runs lovely then out of character just won't start,engine winds over and over.Then after 8 times or more just starts like it used to on the button.I have no ideas why.Its seems like it could be the same problem as car seems dead like its immobolised.My 1998 accent runs lovely then out of character just won't start,engine winds over and over.Then after 8 times or more just starts like it used to on the button.I have no ideas why.Its seems like it could be the same problem as car seems dead like its immobolised.

These immobilisers on hyundai are a chip installation in key ? considering age of car and use of ign key it may well be the worne key ist causing intermitant problem ? ask mother did she get either another ign master key or a tag with the key code number stamped on it for obtaining a replacement key with the car ? as with each new hyundai you get 2x keys and either one of the above with all documents/handbooks etc try hyundai main office b4 you consider trying to cut out immobiliser? this would affect your insurance if it is stolen and found to not have working immobiliser

go to a spares shop and see if the part numbers are the same
I feel that it will be the same but due to the vagaries of engineering you have to check first
are you positive that it is the clutch as a faulty master cylinder will cause the plate slip giving the same indication as a failing clutch

The first thing I would look at would be the fuel filter. Not sure exactly where it's located on your Hundaii but in most cases it can be located under the driver's side just in front of the rear wheel. This is by far the least expensive of fixes and chances are it has never been changed if you haven't done it yourself. Hope this helps.

okay. there could be a couple of problems with your transmission.
1). it's quite possible that the clutch discs inside of your transmission have finally burned out. Hyundai has been known for making faulty transmissions for the accent for the first generation models.
2). if the car doesn't go in first gear, try driving it in normal mode and not economy. the accent purposely pulls in second gear in economy mode, when warmed up, in order to get into the high 30 mpgs.
3). faulty shift control solenoid. These have also been known to be defective with the first generation accent (1995-1999).
4). Your transmission fluid leaked out, prior to the mechanic fixing it, and the high heat building up in the transmission as well as the low amount of fluid in the transmission helped to burn it out.
for options 1 and 4, you wont know the actual problem unless you pull the transmission out and examine all of the clutch discs.
hope this helps...
